The 8-Week Mindfulness Training for Educators

Grounded in neuroscience, mindfulness, and real classroom experience, this training blends research-backed understanding with practical, lived application.

A personal practice for educators
A ripple effect for students
A culture shift for schools

Teaching is emotional work. When educators feel overwhelmed, dysregulated, or depleted, the entire classroom feels it.

​

This training supports educators in building a grounded personal mindfulness practice so presence, regulation, and clarity naturally extend into daily classroom life- creating calm, compassionate classrooms every child deserves.

​

This is not a curriculum to “teach.”


It is a personal practice educators build- and from that foundation, classroom transformation follows.

What Participants Gain
​

  • Great emotional regulation, focus, and steadiness

  • A reliable personal mindfulness practice (not just something to teach)

  • Understanding of the neuroscience of stress, attention, and nervous system regulation

  • Simple ways to integrate mindfulness into already existing classroom routines

  • Increased confidence supporting students through big emotions, transitions, and conflict

  • Clearer, more compassionate communication with students, colleagues, and families

  • More calm, clarity, and joy- both in teaching and in life
     

This is about real, lasting change- not a one-time workshop.

The goal is to make mindfulness a lived experience teachers feel so their students can feel the difference.

How It Works

  • Option A: Cohort-by-Cohort Rollout
    Train one team at a time across the school year (for example, grade-level teams or departments).

  • Option B: Whole-School Implementation
    Run multiple cohorts so the entire staff participates at the same time within the same year.

  • Option C: Pilot Year
    Begin with a core SEL, wellness, or leadership team, then expand in future cycles.

​

Investment Options

  • $4,000 per cohort (up to 10 educators)

  • Full School Partnership: $10,000–$18,000 per year
    (based on school size and number of cohorts)

​In-Depth Reflections from Educators and Administrators

 

 

Meredith W., Elementary Teacher

​

I recently had the pleasure of participating in an 8-week mindfulness training led by the incredible Katie Fleetwood, and I cannot express enough how wonderful the experience has been. Katie's expertise in mindfulness, coupled with her calm demeanor and contagious enthusiasm for the topic, made each session a joy to attend. One of the standout qualities of Katie as a facilitator was her ability to foster an atmosphere of openness and acceptance. Throughout the sessions, she consistently made space for us to share our thoughts, experiences, and ideas without judgment. This created a sense of connection and trust among the group participants. Katie provided valuable resources to use in our personal mindfulness practice as well as resources that could be implemented in our classrooms. I am grateful for the tools, knowledge, and sense of community that Katie cultivated throughout the training. Her training has left me equipped with the skills to continue my mindfulness practice inside the classroom as well as in a personal daily practice. Thank you Katie for this wonderful experience!

This mindfulness training has helped me to become more aware of my mood, my feelings and my state in general. This has been crucial for me as a teacher, as I am dealing with so many things at once in the classroom. The workshop sessions became a place for reflection, observation and learning; a moment to take a pause, and think of the ways in which I care for myself and others. The workshop also provided me with the knowledge and strategies that I needed to start a mindfulness practice in my classroom. After participating in the workshop you end up with a complete tool box and many resources that you can use as you continue implementing a mindfulness practice in your classroom.

This training is one of the best decisions I've made as an educator and as a person! I knew it would help me as a teacher, but I didn't realize how much it would help my overall mental and emotional health. Katie is empathetic, patient, insightful, and gracious. She leads the training with love and kindness, and it's inspiring to witness. I feel calmer and happier as a person and as a teacher because of her infinite wisdom and teachings. This training helped me improve my mindfulness practice with students and with myself. I've shared so many experiences with my students that strengthened our relationships, increased their happiness levels, and created a more positive climate in our classroom. This training should be required for every teacher, regardless of what age you teach, and really every person in the world should experience the magic of Katie Fleetwood!​

Deirdre H., Elementary Teacher

​

It was a pleasure being able to participate in this 8-week mindfulness and meditation training, and it was truly transformative. Despite being a PYP coordinator and in an administrative role, I found immense value in attending each session, thanks to Katie's kind and caring approach. She created a welcoming environment where it was easy to show up and practice these valuable tools 'without judgment'. Throughout the training, Katie skillfully guided us through both personal practice and strategies for integrating mindfulness into classroom settings. Even though some sessions were more tailored for homeroom teachers, Katie was flexible and attentive to the needs of the entire cohort, ensuring that everyone felt supported and empowered to implement these practices effectively. As a result of this training, I feel more equipped than ever to embed mindfulness and meditation practices into our curriculum, fostering a culture of self-awareness and emotional resilience among our students. I highly recommend Katie's training to anyone looking to enhance their well-being and cultivate a mindful classroom environment.

 

Thank you so much Katie! I really loved and enjoyed our sessions together. Wishing you all the best going forward - any school/company would benefit from your expertise!
